Holidays to Singapore Remain Unforgettable





The Lion City of Singapore, a quaint Malay fishing village turned one of the wealthiest nations in the world, assails visitors with its overwhelming grandiosity. This pristine destination is a delightfully heady cocktail of excellent food, dusk to dawn nightlife, mesmerising natural beauty, unforgettable sights, and an absolutely king size shopping scene. While gluttony is the national obsession, shopping is definitely the crowning glory. Lofty colonial era buildings stand in perfect harmony with cloud kissing swanky skyscrapers. The immaculate cleanliness of the landscape appears to be surreal. Even toilets are awarded star ratings like hotels.

If you are a shopaholic, you will find your mecca at the Orchard Road and Bugis Junction. Sinfully crammed with irresistible attractions these places are reputed to turn misers and puritans alike into compulsive shoppers. Full of ritzy malls, designer boutiques as well as hordes of humbler and more affordable street side vendors, Singapore is often called the shopping capital of Asia. To make the most of your holidays to Singapore, visit the country between May and July when the iconic ‘Great Singapore Sale’ unfurls. You can pick up a tantalising array of items at massive discounts of up to 70%. A contagiously festive ambience engulfs every mall and shoppers are entertained with countless shows, events, and gifts.

If the city seems too overwhelming, one can catch peace at the Sentosa Island. For a sweeping aerial view of the island, it is best to go by cable car. Take your pick of seaside retreat from any of the three beaches of the island. The tranquil Tanjong Beach is ideal for lazing out and watching the waves gently lapping against the shore. If you are looking for action, head to the Siloso beach and choose from a range of delightful activities like roller blading, skim boarding, mountain biking, and canoeing. The beach is also the hub of volleyball matches. One can also come up close to sharks, dolphins, and other denizens of the sea at the Underwater World and Dolphin Lagoon. Take the Merlion Walk to treat yourself to astounding views of the local scenery.

Singapore is simply bursting with addictively attractive wonders like night safari at the famed Singapore Zoo, canoeing around the island, riding the world’s highest Ferris Wheel, visiting exotic mosques, temples, churches, and cathedrals, exploring glorious museums and historical monuments, and traversing through vast tracts of gardens and parks. Holidays to Singapore leave infinite beautiful memories.
